Deland Weyrauch, MD, a 2018 graduate of the UND School of Medicine & Health Sciences, won the John Pless Best Poster Award at the National Association of Medical Examiners Annual Meeting in West Palm Beach, Fla., this month. His poster, entitled “Right Ventricular Rupture Following Open Heart Surgery,” was based on experiences during his fourth year sub-internship in Forensic Pathology. Dr. Mark Koponen, associate professor in the Department of Pathology, was Dr. Weyrauch’s mentor for the work. Dr. Weyrauch–seen above at the SMHS MD graduation luncheon in May 2018 with Dr. Wynne (left) and Dr. Sens (right)–is currently a first-year resident in pathology at Yale University’s New Haven Hospital. Congratulations!
